French Guiana : Endrödi 1977c: 32 , 1985a: 700 ; Duranton 2011: 23 (?); Di Iorio et al. 2017: 563 . Brazil : Burmeister 1847: 154 (as Phileurus ovis ); Arrow 1937b: 87 ; Blackwelder 1944: 258 ; Endrödi 1977c: 32 (designation LECTOTYPE Phileurus ovis ), 1985a: 700; Di Iorio et al. 2017: 563 . Other: Endrödi 1977c: 32 ( Colombia ), 1985a: 700 ( Colombia ); Ponchel 2011 (not mentioned); Dupuis 2016b (not mentioned); Di Iorio et al. 2017: 563 ( Argentina , Colombia ). Note. The only records of Archophileurus ovis for the Guianas that we are aware of are the record for French Guiana in Endrödi (1977c: 32 , 1985a: 700 ) that is copied in Di Iorio et al. (2017: 563) , and the uncertain record mentioned in Duranton (2011: 23) . Because this species otherwise appears to be restricted to southern Brazil , Argentina and possibly Colombia , we suspect that the record in Endrödi (1977c , 1985a ) and Di Iorio (2017) is based on a mislabeled or misidentified specimen. We regard this species as not occurring in the research area.
